Kaytee: LAST Daughter!
Kaytee's last time to hang out with these crazy girls she's known almost since Kindergarten. They are being goofy waiting for their Prom dates to arrive for dinner.
All dressed up at last - watching for their dates to arrive (for the second time) this time to go to the dance.
Kaytee pinning the boutonniere on her sweet date, Brandon Wilde. They really were in the same Kindergarten class together.
And he slips on her wrist corsage. She got flowers for her hair to match.
She had pretty sparkly shoes too. And open toed for the first time ever. Her toes seem to have a mind of their own so she normally keeps them corralled.
And they are off to the dance. I will post some pictures from the big event itself when I get them in the next day or so.
A few more "lasts" from Kaytee's last year in high school. Her last time supporting her friends in their sporting events. (Ethan was in that same Kindergarten class!)
There is something pretty awesome about being part of the student section at a high school basketball game. Here are Taylor Voss, Alyssa Torres, Chantel Ramos, Kaytee, Nikki Madden, and Kirstie Cady. Last time to do this too - will probably be a lot crazier sitting in the student section at BYU next fall - but she will really miss this group of friends.
And finally the last time for Kaytee to go to a Dance where couples dressed alike and no one was even surprised by the shirts she and Ethan chose to wear.

Homecoming 2010
YAY for Homecoming in Worland! So sad that it is our very last one and that it wasn't a "real" Homecoming with all my girls coming home. But for Kaytee's senior year she certainly got into the spirit of the whole thing. First was "Twin Day". Kaytee and her friend Matthew Schneider (blonde boy - so definitely very little resemblance) decided to be twins for the day and made matching shirts. They made sure to add a disclaimer regarding their "twin" status.
Matthew was "Schneeder 1" and Kaytee was "Schneeder 2".
Next came "Celebrity Day" Here we have Lil' Wayne, Eminem, Justin Beiber, Jack Sparrow and Hannah Montana. (Kaytee, Taylar, Michelle, Alyssa, Nikki, and Chantel) Quite the assortment. None of Kaytee's teachers recognized her all day.
The day of the football game was Spirit Day with everyone decked out in all the orange and black they could find. The Homecoming Assembly was really fun this year. Here are Michelle and Kaytee announcing an Ice Block Sitting contest between the Depends-wearing teachers.
And then they all got REALLY REALLY LOUD!
The principal had the entire student body on the floor of the gym playing a giant "Simon Says" game. Here Michelle and a few others just got out because they put their arms down without "Simon saying" Kaytee stayed in a few more rounds and her friend Alyssa won the whole thing. It was hilarious.
During the teacher's skit at the end of the assembly they had every student in the school dancing in the middle of the gym with them. It was pretty much pandemonium!
Then came the parade - which the entire town shut down to attend. Here is the float Kaytee helped build with the seniors - she was on it but sitting on the opposite side of where I was watching from so didn't get in the picture.
Here are Kaytee and Ashley after they got off the float.
After the parade was the football game - which they lost to Lander in the last 24 seconds of the game. And then the big dance was tonight. Here are Kaytee and her date, Tyler, before the dance.
And a close-up of her cute dress and hair and their big smiles!
Now they are home from the dance and all changed and making chocolate chip pancakes. And our last Homecoming has come to an end - I get the feeling this is just the first of lots of "lasts" this year :(

September!
Wow! What a September we have had. Kimball and I started off the month going to Las Vegas to spend Labor Day with Cassidy and their sweet family. While we were there we got to celebrate James' 2nd birthday. Since I had just had my birthday a few days before, Cassidy made us a bithday cake to share with James' new favorite activity - fishing!
Loving the luxury of this place! James is my favorite little "Cabana Boy"
That weekend sweet little Eloise was also blessed. I love this picture of her smiling up at her Grandma Mickelsen wearing the beautiful blessing dress her grandma made her.
As we drove home, we stopped in Utah for the night and my mom had a birthday celebration planned for me and my sister, Marilee, who also shares a September birthday. Ralph had fixed some amazing bar-b-que ribs with all the fixings and my mom had decorated for the two of us.
She had pictures from both of our lives and fun facts about us. It really made us feel special (and not quite so old to have our mom do a party for us - except for the 50(!) on the birthday sign.)
My beautiful little sister - pretty special to get to share our birthdays together. We haven't got to do that since we were little (and then I hated it that my mom had us have our party together!)
Next up was Kaytee's birthday on September 12 - Can't believe that my baby is 18! We got her a way cool bike to cruise around town (and maybe next year to cruise around college.)
Everyone we saw on our first bike ride told us how much the bike looked like her! Pretty colorful! Then a bunch of her friends came over bearing gifts and here she is blowing out the candles on the strawberry chocolate icecream cake she requested. Mmmmm it was good!
Next up . . . October will be bringing Homecoming and lots and lots and lots of volleyball. Go Kaytee and the Lady Warriors!
